The Mirror
Reflections of Redemption: Steven Walker's Soulful Journey
Lyrics
I can see
I am able to perceive
In this glass
Referring to a reflective surface (glass)
My how the days have quickly come to pass
Expressing how time has passed quickly
Look at me
Directing attention to oneself
All my flaws
Acknowledging personal imperfections
There's no such thing as grace amid my wrongs
Denying the presence of grace amidst mistakes
Lonely eyes staring back again
Describing eyes as lonely and reflective
Who am I that I should live
Pondering one's worthiness to live
How can I
Questioning the possibility of a fresh start
Start again
Expressing the absence of a peaceful place to rest
There's not a place of peace to rest my head
Emphasizing the lack of peace and weariness
My weary soul
Describing a soul that is almost lifeless
Is almost dead
Expressing fear of approaching the end
I fear the finish line is closing in
Suggesting the inevitability of a conclusion
Oh my mind has a plague within
Referring to a troubled mind with internal issues
The poster boy for an insecure man
Identifying as a symbol of insecurity
Tell me that I won't go back again
Pleading not to revert to past mistakes
Tell me how I can pay for my sins
Seeking guidance on redemption from sins
Oh oh oh
(Oh oh oh)
You don't know
Challenging the accuracy of external perceptions
What you see
Encouraging an open-minded perspective
Open your mind and face reality
Advising to face reality
There's no use
Rejecting the utility of remorse
For remorse
Finding a way to correct a flawed path
I found way to change a faulty course
(Empty line)
Only time has a way to mend
Highlighting the transformative effect of changing perspective
When your eyes take a different lens
Reassuring not to repeat past mistakes
I'll Tell you that You won't go back again
Declaring self-awareness and identity
I'll Tell you that I know just who I am
Asserting knowledge of one's true self
Come see the world from within the other side
Inviting others to experience life from an internal perspective
Oh what a day it is to come alive
Celebrating the joy of being alive
